Oracle Database 12c: RAC Administration — Question 8

Examine the output of this command:

ASMCMD> volinfo G ACFS -a -

Diskgroup Name: ACFS -

Volume Name: VOL1 -
Volume Device: /dev/asm/vol1-280

State: ENABLED -

Size (MB): 248 -

Resize Unit (MB): 32 -

Redundancy: MIRROR -

Stripe Columns: 4 -

Stripe Width (K): 128 -

Usage: ACFS -
Mountpath: /u01/app/grid/acfsmount
The ACFS disk group is a normal redundancy disk group with 5 GB of free space.
To increase the size of the ACFS file system, you execute this command as the root user:
$ /sbin/acfsutil size +200M /u01/app/grid/acfsmount
Which two statements are true regarding the outcome of this command?

Answer options

• A. It resizes VOL1.
• B. It fails to resize the filesystem because it must be unmounted before resizing.
• C. It fails to resize VOL1 because it must be executed as a user belonging to the SYSASM group.
• D. It succeeds but leaves the filesystem unmounted.
• E. It resizes the filesystem mounted on /u01/app/grid/acfsmount.

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

The correct answers are A and D. The command successfully resizes VOL1 by adding the specified size, and it is designed to work while the filesystem is mounted. Options B and C are incorrect because the filesystem does not need to be unmounted for resizing, and root user execution does not require SYSASM group membership for this operation.
